Student Projects
Topics change with my ongoing work. To get a rough idea of what I am up to, have a look at my research interests and software projects.
I am not listing topics here, as the concrete realization depends on the student's background and interests.
So, if you find some area you can somehow relate to or if you have your own idea which could be interesting to me, don't hesitate to write me an E-Mail.
In your mail, please provide some background about yourself, including previous experiences, relevant work, and, foremost, the interests that motivate you.
